Chhim, Wyatt compete in PGA Works Championship; Chhim scores top 5 finish

The playing of the 33rd annual PGA Works Championship held at PGA Village in Port St. Lucie, FL featured two PGA Golf Management students from Mississippi State. Juniors Cameron Chhim and Nick Wyatt, competed in the 3 day event held on the Ryder Course. After the first round of play, Chhim held a one stroke advantage over the field after carding a -1 par round of 71. Day two brought a similar result with Chhim carding a +1 73 to continue leading the field. After a tough opening 9 on the final round Cameron battled back to shoot 75 on the day, which left him in solo 4th place. Nick was able to secure 20th place after an opening round 82.

"The PGA Works Collegiate Championship was an incredible experience. It was a unique experience and I hope I can complete again in the future." Cameron Chhim
